A M I N I M A L [ pronounced A-MINI-MAL ] is a philosophy for the direction of Art and Design in the 21st Century. Pertaining to Minimal art, Aminimalism follows some of the underlining principles of Minimalism, yet takes it to another level of simplified complexity. With emerging technology and advanced tools such as computational geometry and 3D printing, design can be created on the same level of attention to aesthetic as well as with intricacy and precision.
